ABOUT NOEL HAGMAN:
Noel Hagman spent most of her life growing up in the beach communities along the coast and was constantly exposed to people with a unique take on life. Surrounded by talented people --both her great-grandmother and grandfather had careers in theater and television, and with two talented grandmothers, one a singer, the other a fashion designer -- Noel gained a respect for all things pleasing to the eye, and learned that making everyday things beautiful, and beautiful things everyday, made life more interesting. After years of informal and intuitive exploration, working within various mediums such as sculpture, ceramics, and mosaic, Noel attended the New School in NYC, where she earned a Bachelor of Arts in 2007. After graduating, she started experimenting with painting flowers on her shoes, as a way to combine art and fashion.
ABOUT JEFF CAHILL:
Jeff Cahill's art captures the spontaneity of his unique response to the world around him. His bold, individualist expressions have engendered a diverse and enthusiastic collector base for his works, from members of the art world cognoscenti to rock stars, to the Hollywood elite. Cahill also started a limited-edition line of hand-painted Converse All-Stars. After painting 200 shoes for George Maloof and the Palms Casino, in conjunction with the 2007 MTV Video Music Awards, Cahill brought his custom shoes and paintings to EM & Co. Cahill's paintings have been available both through galleries and independently out of the '5th Street Studios' in Santa Monica. His work has appeared in several films and he has contributed his artwork to support fundraising efforts of several charities. Jeff Cahill lives in Los Angeles where he pursues a successful acting career when he's not painting.

About Diva Zappa:
Daughter of music icon Frank Zappa, and artist advocate, Gail, Diva learned to express herself creatively at an early age, in all forms of the arts. She was raised to use her own voice and to follow her passions, which have most recently led her to fashion.
Diva Zappa has become a pioneer in knitting. She first created “Hand Made Beauty” in the hills of Los Angeles, in 2002. Diva’s first showing of her “Hand Made Beauty” collection, at the Candela/Decker Gallery in New York, kicked off the city’s Fashion Week this past September. Every piece that she creates has a life of its own and healing warmth, which has already won the hearts of fans Billy Bob Thornton, Kirsten Dunst, Tom Cruise, Cameron Crowe and Orlando Bloom.
Diva is also an avid Peet's Coffee drinker and an accomplished actress. For more information about Diva Zappa and “Hand Made Beauty,” please visit: http://www.divazappa.com/.

About Lisa Soltis:
Living in downtown L.A.'s arts district, with her husband Daniel, Lisa Soltis works as a jewelry designer, fine artist, and freelance textile designer. As Daniel sculpts the charms in the couple's jewelry line, Lisa conceptualizes and designs the pieces, combining leather with metal and vintage elements. Both artists passionately scavenge for things old and antiqued, and enjoy incorporating slightly dark and twisted elements into the pieces using aged metals and organic materials. Lisa’s jewelry combines bows and beads with miniature sculptures of cleavers and bird skulls, for an overall striking effect. Lisa Soltis’ pieces are available at EM & Co.
About Veronica Ures:
Born and raised in Buenos Aires, Veronica now resides in L.A. with her husband, Gustavo. Veronica’s focus with her jewelry is to create one-of-a-kind pieces that re-capture old glamour. She seeks out vintage and antique pieces that are combined with new materials to create striking pieces that make the wearer stand out in any room. Her designs are modern and edgy, but still maintain a romantic, feminine vibe. Veronica Ures’ pieces are available at EM & Co. For more information about Veronica Ures Jewelry, please visit:
